Three UK (VodafoneThree): does its level 3 to 6 apprenticeships sponsor a UK visa?
No. Three UK (VodafoneThree) does not sponsor its level 3 to 6 apprenticeships for international students who need a visa. VodafoneThree's own apprenticeships page says candidates must already hold a UK working permit valid for the whole apprenticeship without any support from VodafoneThree, and must live in the UK throughout. It confirms it does not sponsor visas and requires unrestricted right to work in the UK, on top of the usual apprenticeship levy funding and academic entry requirements set out in individual job adverts.
